About
Have you ever wondered what it's like riding along in an ambulance as they head to an emergency with lights and sirens blaring? Wondered what police officers are thinking as they approach a location where shots have been fired? Have you ever questioned why fire crews run into a savagely burning home where the heat melts metal? Ever been to a hospital and thought, how do nurses and doctors keep it together when someone comes in not breathing and bleeding everywhere? Have you ever driven by a prison or jail and thought how scary it would be to walk into the jail when it is 1 of you against 100 of them and you have nothing but your thoughts and hands to help defend yourself?
